Pet care experience

An experienced dog friend

There has never been in a time in my life where I haven’t lived with at least one animal. Pets have been a major part of my family dynamic, so much so that we often joke that animal welfare runs in our blood. I’ve been pet sitting full time for over two years and have experience with seniors, puppies, adults and breeds ranging from Chihuahuas to Great Pyrenees. Occasionally I work as an assistant to a dog trainer to teach “stranger danger”, or how to relax a dog when a new person comes to their home. Animals tend to warm up to me quickly, and this is a badge of honor I wear proudly.

Safety, trust & environment

When I am at your house I am there for your dog. I try to make it as much of a vacation for them as possible and tend to spoil them. I would throw a ball or play tug-of-war until I’m exhausted. I have a strict leash policy when walking and will follow schedules as closely as possible. I tend to double and triple check crates, doors, and gates. It’s always better safe than sorry.

Shelby was awesome! She took great care of my dogs while my husband and I went out of town overnight. Everything was neat and tidy when we returned.

Shelby did a great job caring for our pup. She was very responsive to our communication and respectful of our property. I would definitely recommend her and hope to use her in the future.

Shelby is a kind-hearted animal lover, who has been a good pet sitter for many years. Her family all loves animals and she grew up with them. I have seen her take care of farms, single dogs and cats, and she is a compassionate caretaker for all of the animals. She has a cat and dog in her home and familiarity with animal-care. She has years of pet sitting experience, and is a trustworthy and reliable sitter. Highly recommend!

Shelby is a reliable and loving pet sitter. You can truly trust the safety of your home and critters in her care and relax while you're away. Animals are naturally drawn to her and she is very good with all of our pets!

Dogs over 1 year old
Shelby can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
Let me know if your dog is sneaky or a thief. I’m perfectly fine if a sock goes missing, but I would like to know where their usual hiding place is. I also like to know schedules ahead of time, like feeding times, medications, and expected walk times. The more info I have, the better.
